Lebron Screws the USA (updated)

Update: the H has a great post about this

An American basketball player (LeBron James) will announce on a television special (ESPN) tonight which basketball team he will play for the next few years.

He is a high school graduate who went from high school to the NBA. No college. No advanced degrees. He will earn more in one game than most people earn in a year.

He is going to fuck ESPN and their advertisers and the American sporting public and they will enoy it.

No wonder the rest of the world thinks we are stupid!

Radio Lobo

NPR is my radio friend of choice. Today I was in country, wing nut, and "Lord help us, Jesus is on his way" radio land. So, the magic seek button found me 97.7 Radio Lobo!

Listening to commercials for McDonald's, Burger King, and other restaurants in spanish was.....interesting. My favorite was a Taco Bell ad for a "bacon club chalupa". I'm not ordering one either!

For your listening pleasure: Locos Desde Ayer by Inquietos Del Norte

Republican Friends and How to Keep them

No matter what people tell their Democratic friends, everyone knows and even likes some Republicans. This can be a problem at work, lunch, happy hour and even dinner parties*.

So, if you find yourself in the company of several of the YTRBILTs**, remember to occaisionally bring up something that Repulicans hate. You don't actually have to participate in the subsequent conversation, you just want to appear "not liberal".

Try to choose a subject that you are neutral or even negative about, but that you know Republicans hate, such as soccer.

Republicans are especially fond of football and baseball, but tend to shy away from other sports. Top among these ‘other sports’ is the cancer known as soccer. Soccer’s threat to American men has been prevalent since immigrants began arriving on U.S. shores in the late 19th century.

Good luck, you'll need it.

*If you invite Rebs and Dems to the same dinner party, you are one tough person.

**Yes They're Republican But I Like Them
